there is a txt file inside the zip if you rather do it manually.

What does this cab do to fix the lag?

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Keybd
"InitialDelay"=dword: dec 0 (default value = 375)
"RepeatRate"=dword: dec 8 (default value - 8 )

I can confirm that this does not resolve the keyboard lag issues.

See my initial statement above. Your not gonna fix it unless you dump windows. It has happaned on all slider and flip phones that have WinMo on them. I dont know about non HTC devices. Anyone?

I never had any keyboard lag on my Touch Pro (Sprint) using the stock rom.

I have never head that on a stock rom there was a keyboard lag....my theroy is that the lag from custom roms come from the fact that the sys is extremly fast and the original settings for the keyboard lag isnt changed....the stock rom sys is slow, so therefore the lag has to be longer to match with the sys....when a faster sys is in a rom the lag will not match so thats when u see a lag....the cab i made is made to match closer to the faster sys's to fix the lag....the accuser is the only person who has said my cab hasnt worked.....most likely do to a non soft reset after instalation.

i hate to burst everyone's bubble on this but on Merdin's 3.6 rom, the cab file does most certainly fix the lag. the change in operation is quite amazing actually. before the patch the slide out keyboard was practically unusable. i just atted the patch, did a softrest and tried again. it does work. at least on the rom i'm using.

using RSTG Sprint Stock Custom Rom and this fix worked very well for me! thanks! it was usually 2-3 letters behind and now keeps right up with me

They keyboard lag is terrible. But I have gotten used to it. To me it looks like its really a winmo issue.
